Many  have sought to place the  instrument of science in a loggerhead with the essential truths revealed through the instrument of religion. But has such effort been successful? Are they right in trying to do so? Here's my thoughts on this: The Universe Science and religion are just two sides of the same coin working in paripassu. Their obvious means of expression, though varied, do not deny their inherent familiarity. As such while it is that religion receives hidden truth by the clout of faith, science expounds the revealed truths by experimentation and proves. It is to say that science is a process with deep focus in the discovery of nature; an aspect of divine artefact. The resort to science to dispel divine realities will, hence, be counter-productive.' Here's my explanation: that science is the experiential study of the facts locked up in nature. By this process, we are the more brought to the deep thoughts of God, which it unravels. That through scienc

An amorous couple died after their off road vehicle rolled into a lake while they had sex , say police, according to vanguardngr.com. Detectives say the couple were “making love on the back seat when the car was parked near the lake”, according to local reports. The car had been left in “neutral gear”, but their passionate movements jolted the Niva so it edged forwards into the lake near Elan. “The lovers were shaking the car and it rolled down to the water,” said a report by local news site Bloknot Volgograd.  “The car was lifted out of the lake and the bodies of the young people were found on the back seat,” said Andrey Fedotov, an official of the Russian Investigative Committee.  The school physical education teacher and his girlfriend had earlier driven to the lake in Volograd region, but worried relatives later reported them missing when they failed to return.

"The older you get, the better you get, unless you are a banana." -Betty White Life is a privilege manifested very well in the opportunity of the new dawn. Each day is a prove of the graciousness availed by the privilege of life, and so is a year, which by itself is a conglomeration of days. Today, I'll talk about the beauty, the opportunities and the privileges of life. Yes, I feel like talking about them because of the life I see and have. Because today, by my birthing memorial, a new age is counted for me. It is in such that, to me, this topic is strategic, even as it is to everyone-in as much we live and appreciate what living opportunities that are in birthdays. Ahanonu Kingsley Life's beautiful, especially when the opportunities and privileges it affords are better and more appropriately appreciated. The gift of life is the cardinal privilege from the almighty and as far as consciously, the greatest gift of man. Life's the central focus of exist

TODAY, I would be talking on perception and how very necessary it is in the assertion of true values, especially as concerns human relationships. This is because, many relationships have nosedived not because of the failure of one or the other but due to the lacuna in appreciating what goodness, what noble thought lies just behind the intent. It is a failure, albeit, not taken to heart that's led to an understanding of indifference, of the fear that it does not exist, just because it's not seen. But perception is what suggests reality. It is the view of existence. Perception says that until something is seen, that does not exist. True or not true, but that is what perception asserts. Perception could be said to be the critical thing in so far as observation is concerned. It is what people are fed that they would be able to perceive, and it is what they perceive that they assume to be. This is the very reason an act aside been must be said to be, for if an intent is

A thing of sorrow happened in Owerri, the Imo state capital, Tuesday, when a truck suspected to be ladened with cement crushed to death a 'keke' man. The incident which happened just close to the Imo ENTRACO office along Port Harcourt road was said to have been caused by the overzealousness of the ENTRACO workers. According to eyewitness account, the ENTRACO mobile staff had tried to stop the driver of the heavy duty truck when he began to speed off. They pursued him and in the process he rammed into the tricycle operator. Meanwhile, on Saturday, some tricycle operators took to the Port Harcourt road office of the state agency to protest the killing of one of them which they said was caused by the agency's staff.

In the elections held on Thursday, seven candidates of Nigerian heritage were elected into the United Kingdom parliament. The winners are: Chuka Umunna, who was re-elected to represent Streatham. Others are Bim Afolami representing Hitchin and Harpenden; Fiona Onasanya, Peterborough; Chi Onwurah, Newcastle; Kate Osamor, Edmonton; Kemi Badenoch, Saffron Walden and Helen Grant, Maidstone and The Weald. To these Nigerians, who in changed climate, decide to bring us hnour, we say congratulations. The UK Parliamentary elections were keenly contested between the Conservatives and Labour leading to a hung parliament as the Conservative candidate and PM Theresa May failed to secure clear majority. However, with a minor lead,May's party had reached a deal with the DUP to form a minority government after receiving a go ahead from the British monarch, Queen Elizabeth II.

Below is the text of the Pope's endorsement of Peter Okpaleke as bishop of Ahiara Diocese. "I cordially greet the Delegation and thank you for coming from Nigeria in a spirit of pilgrimage. For me, this meeting is a consolation because I am deeply saddened by the events of the Church in Ahiara. In fact, the Church (and excuse the wording) is like a widow for having prevented the Bishop from coming to the Diocese. Many times I have thought about the parable of the murderous tenants, of which the Gospel speaks (cf. Mt 21:33-44), that want to grasp the inheritance. In this current situation the Diocese of Ahiara is without the bridegroom, has lost her fertility and cannot bear fruit.  Whoever was opposed to Bishop Okpaleke taking possession of the Diocese wants to destroy the Church. This is forbidden; perhaps he does not realize it, but the Church is suffering as well as the People of God within her. The Pope cannot be indifferent. I know very well the events that

VATICAN -Yesterday the Holy Father received a Delegation of the Diocese of Ahiara, Nigeria, in a private Audience, which has been living a painful situation for years. In his speech, the Pope berated those who in whatever way had 'scandalized the church'. Saying that he would not be indifferent to the situation, he likened those behind it as the biblical tenants trying to deny the son of his inheritance. While commending the victimized Bishop Okpaleke for what he described as his holy humility and patience, he asked that well written apology be presented by all priest of Ahiara Diocese before July 9. Anybody that refuses to so do, loses his office. His words, "Therefore, I ask that every priest or ecclesiastic incardinated in the Diocese of Ahiara, whether he resides there or works elsewhere, even abroad, write a letter addressed to me in which he asks for forgiveness; all must write individually and personally." The meeting, characterized by dialogue and li

The call for all the Igbos of South-eastern Nigeria to leave the northern region by an amalgamation of some northern youthful elements in what they called the Kaduna Declaration is something that ordinarily would have been dismissed away as a disgruntled assertion of people who at best could be described as been under hoax. But then it is a ventilation of the combined disillusion of some unreal elements, which albeit should not just be wished away. We have heard of scores of elements who were regarded as inconsequential and incapable of pulling the strings, finally firing the shots and disorienting the organized order. The fact being that anybody, no matter how little or insignificant, can raise a dust that could push a giddiness. This is the way I see the 1st October quit-the-north notice given by the conglomeration of the so-called Arewa youths. I see it as a a roaring stir of a mischievous child which if left unattended to can degenerate into one avoidable cataclysm of high

Good morning, dear esteemed reader. Thank God you woke up fine. How was the night? How is your day going to be like? It's a beautiful thing to wake up each morning, especially strong, healthy. But then, what do you see when you wake up, each morning? How does it serve you? You should see a new morning, you should see a new life, you should see new opportunities. Yes, these are what the new day presents. The opportunities of the new day abound, that's why you should be eclectic, and excited seeing the dawn of each morning. This euphoric feeling of the waking morning ought to stir you into an optimism, and optimism suggested from the fact that the new day, fresh and unraveling portends greater horizon to do new things, assert new privileges and assume greater opportunities. Life is a gift of the new day. It is a privilege refreshed by the newness of each day. It is a platform that can be developed by the opportunities the new day unveils. It is a gift that can be bette

London hit by terror again? It was heart wrenching, an incident bringing forth a horrific reminiscence. The incident of terror attack that occurred in London, Saturday. According to reports, the assailants had drove in with a van on the London bridge, ramming on people. They immediately jumped out and with knife began their stabbing spree. It was learnt later that the four assailants were stopped by security forces-after they've killed more than 7 revellers, injuring over 40. The attack by gunmen, who claimed to be doing it for Allah in the heart of the British capital was a bad omen that instigates a rather heavy, disheveled rue of "why London again?". Just some months ago, March 22nd, the beautiful city of London was the target of terrorism as the houses of parliament escaped what would have been a monumental catastrophe as a lone man hounded on unsuspecting victims at the Westminster bridge before heading down to the parliamentary building, where he was mowed do

For Those Cut Short By 2012 Dana Air Mishap Today, the third day of June, 2017, I rue as I find time to remember all those who lost their lives in the ill-fated Dana airplane of June 3rd, 2012. Today brings a nostalgic feeling of lost as the dead are called to mind, especially the late Prof COE Onwuliri, the late Nancy and Jennifer Ibe and the whole lots that perished in that incident in Iju Ishaga. Today, I share in the griefs of the loved ones whom they left behind, unannounced and heartbroken. May the hope of the resurrection and the cherished memories they left behind keep them strong. And to the government, may they continue to find in these remembrances opportunities to better the air industry and the national governance as well. May the souls of all those who lost their lives in that unforeseen Dana calamity of 2013 and of those involved in other air-crashes in the land continue to find repose.

Today marks the beginning of a new month; the month of June, 2017. June is one of the twelve periodic apostles of an annum, the sixth in the series. It is remarkable for its launch into increase water fall, the spring season; and for this, it has become so associated with intense tempo of copulation. This significantly identifies the month of June with fecundity and virility. Subsequently, many people readily appreciate the relevance of the month in their evolution; there are understandably revolving spree of birthdays and celebrations in June. Yours sincerely falls obviously in the mold of those who began their journey to existence in the sixth scion of the yearly calendar. Hence, it is such a remarkable month because of that defining moment. And so in the spirit of the new month, I wish all the fertility, productivity, the richness, the joy and the life, which June epitomizes. A Happy New Month To Y'All My Esteemed Readers
